IBM Tape Hardware & Archiware P5

Protect your data and media assets on LTO Tape

Media assets are the backbone of any production or broadcast company – therefore, their protection should have top priority. A mixture of mid-term and long-term protection is the perfect recipe to keep them safe at all times. LTO tape is the ideal storage medium to complement this strategy – easy to use, inexpensive with a certified 30 year shelf life.

Backup & Archiving with IBM and P5

The Archiware P5 Software Suite offers modules for both mid-term and long-term data security:P5 Backup for data duplication and quick recovery in case of user errors or hardware failure, and P5 Archive for data migration to keep important data safe for years.

P5 Backup creates full or incremental copies of your data and stores them on disk or tape for a defined retention period. If needed, data can be restored by any user through the P5 browser interface.

P5 Archive migrates data which is no longer in daily use onto LTO tape. All archived data can be browsed in a catalogue (including metadata and previews) and restored from the tape archive with one click if required.
